Jeremiah 11:6

Then the Lord said unto me
Again; for this is a repetition of the above order: proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of
Jerusalem:
with a loud voice, and openly, that all may hear: saying, hear ye the words of this covenant, and do them;
which their forefathers promised, when the covenant was made with them, ( Exodus 24:7 ) , but did not perform; hearing without doing is of little avail; not the hearers, but the doers of the law are justified; wherefore men should not be content with hearing only, ( Romans 2:13 ) ( James 1:22 ) .
